Shell picket in Harold's Cross

category dublin | environment | news report author Saturday July 09, 2005 01:26author by anarchaeologist - DGN (personal capacity) Report this post to the editors

Members of DGN and other concerned citizens tonight closed down the Shell station on Parnell Rd. in protest at the continued jailing of the Rossport 5 and the continuing collaboration of the FF/PD coalition with this multinational.

12 activists (and 2 kids) operated a successful picket on the Shell station along the canal on Parnell Road between 5.30ish and 7 this evening (Friday).

We were protesting at the continued imprisonment of the Rossport 5, behind bars at the behest of a multinational which has undue influence with the crooks and incompetents in government and the wigs in the Four Courts. The consortium exploiting the Corrib gas field will continue to screw the Irish taxpayer thanks to a series of deals made on our behalf by Ray Burke and Bobby Molloy, among others.

The tribunals established to investigate government corruption have so far failed to explain how oil and gas exploration companies such as Shell, Statoil and Marathon pay the lowest tax rates of any such concerns in Europe, while maintaining the power to impose untested technologies on the people of Erris and the apparent influence to imprison those who stand up to them.

We will continue to oppose the high pressure gas pipeline and demand the immediate release of the Rossport 5 and the cancellation of any deals made with the consortium. This is money which will fund hospitals, schools and crèches. It's ours.
